redtail

yes, that would be a great hat-trick, I came close to a 30lb carp with one of 28lb 4oz in a match on feeder gear!

hope you get that barbel on a fly, let us know if you do, I love catching new species, I get a real buzz from it

that would be awesome, keep us updated on how you get on

Caught my first fish on a lure last year, great fun and intend to do more of the same this year

Thats a great set of targets, good luck and I hope you bag them all

Good luck with your targets, my pike target is a little more modest at 10lb but I would also love to catch a double figure barbel - awesome fish

now that would be a nice brace, a 2lb roach and a 3lb perch!

sounds like a great fishery and close to home too

that's great fishing, is that on the feeder, pole or waggler?

Cracking fish, well done mate

lol, fair enough, i suppose every day we wake up is a blessing

I'm the same mate, would love to catch a decent pike, I like catching eels too but sadly another species on the decline

well lets hope the weather gets a bit better

good luck with your aims and targets, at long last the weather seems to be slightly better

There's two species I've never caught, Zander and Sturgeon, I seen two Sturgeon caught at a commercial by my mates and they still give me grief that I didn't get one! A 2lb roach still eludes me, I've had a 1lb 12oz from a local ressie and a 1lb 10oz from the river Isle but I feel they're getting rarer and rarer in our rivers now

See how I got on today http://againstmenandfish.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/summerhayes-open-17th-march-2013.html

What was that orange thing in the sky today! http://againstmenandfish.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/summerhayes-open-17th-march-2013.html

fair play and it is nice just to be out on the bank

yes that would be a stunning fish, caught my first grayling last year but it was only about 12oz, would love to catch a bigger one

I know what you mean, one day a week isn't enough is it

would love to catch a big rudd, my biggest is only about a pound, another one for my list!

good luck, hope you get one

What are peoples aims and targets for 2013? I would love to catch my first flounder and up my pb's for mullet and barbel and catch my first double figure pike.

thanks for the tip, I'll make sure I wash my gear off
